    Car parking nearby?

    There’s a car park on Bell Place (£2.20 all day) which Google Maps says is closed… but as of 27 July 2025, it was open and operating, and within sight of the venue.

    Your next nearest car parking option is Church Lane car park, which is 0.3 miles away.

    Be careful when getting directions to either – there are similarly named car parks further away!

    Air conditioning?

    No – they open the side doors to create a breeze instead.

    Helpful staff?

    Yes

    What people told us:

    “The Hangar is a great venue full stop. Very accommodating and a lot more seating!”

    Other notes:

    Although this will vary depending on the event, we’ve had multiple reports of flashing lights being used at The Hangar which can trigger photosensitive epilepsy.

    A Carers Ticket Scheme is available but with very specific requirements: if you require full time assistance you can claim a complimentary ticket for your personal carer/assistant, but you will need to provide them with recent DLA letters showing your current level of care or mobility.

    They will also discuss access requirements if you are not in receipt of DLA – again, you’ll have to email in advance. The scheme is run on a first come, first served basis, so get in touch early for busy shows.
